The Board of Selectmen have created a Fire Station Building Committee and are looking for four town residents to join.  This will be a seven member committee made up of a member of the Board of Selectmen, a member of the Board of Health, a member of the Finance Committee and four residents.  We are looking for residents with experience in building construction and/or finance.  To apply, please email a letter of interest to ddennis@winchendon-ma.gov

Due to a regional shortage of road salt deliveries, the Town’s ability to fully treat all roadways is limited at this time. With inclement weather expected tonight and continuing through the weekend, residents are urged to use extreme caution when traveling.

Road conditions may be icy and slippery, particularly on untreated side streets, hills, bridges, and shaded areas. Please slow down, allow extra travel time, and avoid unnecessary travel if possible. Pedestrians are also reminded to use caution on sidewalks and walkways.

DPW crews will continue to monitor conditions and prioritize main roads, emergency routes, and public safety areas as resources allow. We appreciate residents’ patience and cooperation as we work through this temporary supply issue.

The Winchendon Redevelopment Authority has a member vacancy. Please reach out to ddennis@winchendon-ma.gov if you are interested. The deadline for this is February 2, 2026
